Framework with cytoskeletal actin filaments forming insect footpad hairs inspires biomimetic adhesive device design

Footpads allow insects to walk on smooth surfaces. Specifically, liquid secretions on the footpad mediate adhesiveness through Van der Waals, Coulomb, and attractive capillary forces. Although the morphology and function of the footpad are well defined, the mechanism underlying their formation remai...
